BBC cheers and jeersSeptember 4: Polly Toynbee misses a key point in the battle between the BBC and the government over the "45-minutes" claim (Off the hook - for now, August 29).

Hutton: the sources of concernAugust 30: Tony Blair earnestly asserted and Lord Hutton appears to have rather unwarily acquiesced, that the BBC would only ever report a third party's opinion if it agreed with it and thought it to be true.

BBC offers no defenceAugust 22: You reported (August 14) the BBC's head of news, Richard Sambrook, as saying that before Andrew Gilligan, the BBC's defence correspondent had "simply reflected the Ministry of Defence's point of view".

Hutton: the real storyAugust 15: The media aspect of the Kelly affair is indeed very interesting and you are right to give it prominent play.

Hutton: more submissionsAugust 14: When one witnesses Rod Liddle's noble, scripted (G2, August 13) and unscripted, attempts to defend Andrew Gilligan against the Lilliputians, two things become clear.

Hutton: first thoughtsAugust 13: The Hutton inquiry perfectly illustrates the problem with the Blair government: a lack of honesty and a belief that repeating lies often enough makes them true.

Sceptics on HuttonAugust 12: Roy Hattersley (Fake piety, August 11) mentions Dr Kelly 14 times while war and Iraq get one mention.
